Answer:

Rate constant = 0.01238 days⁻¹

Explanation:

The first order reaction has as general equation:

Ln[A] = -kt + Ln[A]₀

<em>Where [A] is concentration of the reactant after time t,</em>

<em>k is rate constant</em>

<em>And [A]₀ the initial concentration of the reactant</em>

<em />

The half-life is the time required to reach the half of the initial concentration. If [A]₀ = 1; [A] = 1/2

Replacing:

Ln[1/2] = -kt + Ln[1]

-0.693 = -k*56days

0.01238days⁻¹ = k

<h3>Rate constant = 0.01238 days⁻¹</h3>

Calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. express the nu
bagirrra123 [75]
<span>To calculate the number of moles of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of aluminum sulfate, al2(so4)3. We will simply inspect the "number" of aluminum, sulfur, and oxygen atoms available per one mole of the compound. Here we have Al2(SO4)3, which means that for every mole of aluminum sulfate, there are 2 moles of aluminum, 3 (1 times 3) moles of sulfur, and 12 (4x3) moles of oxygen. Since we have four moles of Al2(SO4)3 given, we simply multiply 4 times the moles present per 1 mole of the compound. So we have 4x2 = 8 moles of Al, 4x3 = 12 moles of sulfur, and 4x12 = 48 moles of oxygen.

So the answer is:
8,12,48

Which of the following sets of empirícal formula, molar mass, and molecular formula is correct?
skad [1K]

<em>Answer:</em>

  • The option C is correct.
  • CH4N, 90g, C3H12N3.

<em>Explanation:</em>

                    <em>Option C:</em>

  • The molecular formula is C3H12N3.
  • If we take ratio 3:12:3 that will be equal to 1:4:1 so its empirical formula will be CH4N.
  • The molar mass of molecular formula = (12×3) + (1×12) +( 14×3) = 98 g

                <em>Option A :</em>

  • In option A , molecular and empirical formula are both correct but molar mass is not valid. It should be 169 acc. to molecular formula.

              <em>Option B:</em>

  • In option B, molecular formual is not valid.
  • It should be as C6H16O2
